  • Great multi-purpose HDTV (VHF+UHF) and FM antenna. But very big.
There are a few things that this big antenna does not do well (it is not compact and easy to take down when a hurricane threatens), but for what I wanted it works very well. No need for an electronic amplifier/booster. Note that the specs in their literature states that the average gain for the multiple US TV bands are: VHF Lo: 3.6db (54-88 Mhz) VHF Hi: 8.6 db (174-216Mhz) UHF: 9.5db (470-806MHz) FM: ? (87.5 - 108 Mhz) HDTV: in my area there are both UHF and VHF-Hi HDTV stations - the main antenna farm is located only about 23 miles away, and most broadcasters are in the same general direction, but there are multiple large buildings in the way, and plenty of big trees even though I have the antenna mounted on a mast 24ft over the ground. I had the previous model of this beast before and knew that it would perform well enough for this job. I have no problem receiving the main HDTV stations in our area. Seems like a better image than the compressed signal from ATT Uverse. FM - I like to listen to a few college radio stations in our area and they are not strong broadcasters - this antenna has no trouble picking those stations up as well. Size - this antenna is big - a beast - fortunately made of mostly hollow aluminum and some plastic so it is not heavy. If you know about broadcasting and antennas, basically the higher the frequency the smaller the wavelength, and thus the smaller the antenna needs to be. UHF frequencies, where most HDTV is now days, do not require this giant antenna. However the lower frequencies VHF and FM require a larger antenna to achieve the same level of gain. Since I knew there were several HDTV channels broadcasting on VHF and I wanted FM reception of some weak stations I went with this solution. Do your homework and check through various online sites where your stations broadcast antennas are, and what frequencies they're on. For me, the downside to this size is that the antenna needs to be taken down in preparation for a hurricane, and that is not trivial. Directional - This antenna is also fairly directional and works best only when aimed correctly. Fortunately the main broadcast antennas for the stations I'm interested in are all within a few degrees of each other from my location. Do your homework and find out where those HDTV broadcast antennas are. Cons: The plastic parts are light and make good insulators for the best antenna design, but mechanically these parts will be fried in the South Florida sun and will not last. On my old antenna (very similar to this one), after 10 years, the plastic parts had become so brittle that one of the "arms" had broken off and was waving in the breeze (maybe a bird landed on it?). When I brought the old one down to repair it, many more plastic pieces broke. However, the old antenna may have been over 10 years old - so yes, the plastic parts are annoying in that they will break, but 10+ years is not that bad a lifetime. This new plastic and design looks a little sturdier than the old design so I'm hoping that it last longer in the SFL sun. The assembly is not completely trivial and there are some orientation issues with parts that might be helped with better instructions. I was able to get it done without help, but I think most people would consider me handy. Again this thing is big and required some thinking on where I would assemble it and how I would get it up onto the mast. I assembled it outside on the roof, as close to where I was going to need to mount it on the mast. ---- Next time I may experiment with some of the more modern "bow-tie" type antennas in the attic for the HDTV, along with a separate FM antenna for the FM receiver. I just did not want to hassle with the unknowns and additional wiring that setup would require. I knew this setup would work since it was replacing a very similar older antenna and every antenna recommendation site clearly states that outside and high up are the best mounting locations for the best signal. ... show more

  • Channels galore!
After trying a couple of smaller, good antennas, with only minor success, I finally broke down and did what I should have done from the beginning, and I bought this big fella. It arrives in a box a good 6' tall or more. The antenna is in three sections inside the box. I watched a number of videos online about assembling the antenna, as well as reading several reviews, here. I installed this in my attic, hanging it only slightly below the rafters (see the attached photo). I used antennaweb.org to see the best source of channels and where to point the antenna. A handy tool to have is a compass app that I downloaded and used to point this in the area listed on the antennaweb.org website. The antenna, when fully assembled, is around 16 feet long, The VHF antenna rods open up and the full span is a good 6'-8' wide. It definitely "explores the space" 😉 But you need those wide rods to pull in the low-VHF and hi-VHF channels cleanly. I am in the Atlanta market, living northwest of town. Per antennaweb I am in the neighborhood of 25-40 miles from the available stations. This thing pulls in LOADS of channels. I used the auto-finder on both of my TVs to populate the channel list, and I am pulling in more than 90 TV channels! Bear in mind, that includes there being multiple channels being broadcast per station. Picture quality is fantastic! Now I need to make a decision upon which streaming service to purchase, as I'm not getting sports channels like ESPN (college football season will be here before we know it). I am SUPER-HAPPY with this antenna. It is pulling in everything spectacularly! Low-VHF, Hi-VHF, all of the UHF channels. This is the one you want. ... show more

  • Channel Master Advantage CM-3020 Outdoor Long Range TV Antenna #2
---> this is " THE SECOND REVIEW " i've done for this brand of antenna & my antenna is a CM-3020 but this actually applies to the CM-3018.., CM-3016 antennas aswell & any other antenna tv set OLD or NEW , coaxial or flat-wire type lead in cable from the antenna down & into the house & its for U ones' out there who have bought an antenna ( ANY ANTENNA ) recently and maybe a tv set also lately.., & my Q is: the tv set u have: is it A NEW HDTV SET or ARE U USING A OLDER ANALOG TV SET with A DIGITAL CONVERTER BOX on it " ??.., cuz there's a 99% chance that whichever one u have ISNT SET UP RIGHT. IF u bought something new " THEN it's most-likely set to CABLE " cuz all new tv sets from the factory are set to cable tv by default & MOST ANALOG to HDTV CONVERTER BOXES will switch back to the cable setting by default IF unplugged - & or left unplugged for long periods of time if they have been unused OR a power outage like electrical storm etc. has happened BECAUSE THE ANALOG to DIGITAL SET-TOP BOXES - themselves have NO BACK-UP BATTERY such as A COIN CELL BATTERY like other devices have to keep the settings' memory intact " ONLY the remotes IF ANY have batteries & do not have the settings if something like above should occur - " but there are SOME TV DEALERS tho will take the time before they sell a set to go into the tvs' menu setup & scroll down to where it says * signal OR signal source * & switch it from cable to analog OR antenna " - ( because NO ANTENNA , TV SET , or DIGITAL CONVERTER BOX will work right if not set up properly ) & then after setting it up right: exit the menu & turn the tv set off , wait a few minutes - NOT UNPLUG but SWITCH THE SET OFF for a short time & then turn it back on so it'll be set up for digital signals ).., JUST BECAUSE u have a HDTV or DTV tv set , it doesnt mean THAT the set is ready to start watching or working right ! ALL OF my sets except 3 require a ANALOG to DIGITAL CONVERTER BOX aswell as the TV SET UP CORRECTLY to begin to work right .., & again -the same goes with a analog to digital tv converter: if THOSE ARE SEALED from the factory - they are set to cable by default unless u bought one used & either-way have to be set to antenna in the ANALOG to TV or TVs' MENU before they'll work right with ANY analog tv set.., some people like myself need a rotor & a booster also but if ur in a city or close by one - u may only need the booster & the best one i brand i think are the: " EAGLE ASPEN DIST AMP 25 GX PRE-AMP " or BOOSTER & amazon has them on they're site.., the eagles are about half the price of what channel master pre-amps costs & i'm not even sure if winegard sells an amp or not - but if they do it wasnt offered to me when i bought my winegard outdoor HD8200U antenna for a back-up & WHICH IS STILL IN my garage because the channel master 3020 tv antenna that i bought in '2011 is still up & doing the job.., but i bought the winegard hd8200U as a back-up cuz i didnt think the channel master 3020 wud last this long or until Nov. '2017 - BUT IT HAS.., & if i'm still alive to see the time come to put the winegard antenna up i'll have it ready.., BUT the the things i mentioned above are probably most-of if not ALL OF your' problems.., & BTW no antenna i kno of comes with a mast OR mounting pole & or the 2-wire flat lead in & or coaxial cable unless specified in the products' description & things like a mast.., rotor & rotor wire.., coax.., connectors, uhf/vhf matching transformers etc. have to be purchased separately so be sure u figure those into the cost of everything AND as far as the rotor-wire goes: thats the same thing as a 100' or longer roll of telephone wire & which is a lot cheaper than rotor wire & the last rotor i boght , the rotor wire WASNT INCLUDED and HAD TO BE purchased separtely but i used a $5 roll of 100' of telephone wire which strands are color-coded & u can run the red wire to the #1 connection & the green wire to the #2 connection & so on.., - some people think or assume that all of that stuff is included with the sale & 99% of the time , IT ISNT !.., so if u just received this recently & want to use it - then take the time to go thru the steps i mentioned & see if it works any better for u !.. HAPPY T-DAY & safe XMAS '2017 & N-Y '18 also .. ... show more
